The Ann Arbor City Council's most consistent policy, since 1984, has been to smother every resolution that opposes U.S. funding to Israel. 

Now Itamar Ben-Gvir,  a very public admirer of the mass-murderer Baruch Goldstein, is in charge of the Israeli police. Yes, he officially has his finger on the triggers pointed at the Palestinian people. 

City Council is still sitting on this simple human rights resolution, just 7 words long.  It says: "We are against military aid to Israel".

Virtually the same resolution was recommended to the City Council in 2003 by its own Ann Arbor Human Rights Commission. It fell on their deaf ears, and many thousands of Palestinians died.
